We share with you useful resources and information elaborated by partners in our fight for immigrant rights to help keep you and your communities informed
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and Brooklyn Defender Services has created a number of resources to inform immigrant communities about their rights and advise them on steps they can take during encounters with ICE. We encourage you to watch the following series of videos and share them with the members in your community to help keep them protected.
What can we do when an ICE agents come to our house and knock on our door? This video will help you understand what to do if agents come to your house looking for you or a loved.
If you open your doors unknowingly for ICE agents, it is important to remember that you still have rights. This video highlights what to do when ICE agents enter your home and what rights you have in this situation.
You may have ICE agents approach you while outside your community. This video will help you understand what you can do and explain your right to record your interaction with ICE.
Even when held in immigration detention, you have rights. This video will help you understand how to plan for this event with your families and what you are entitled while you are detained.
Every family should have an Emergency Plan to be prepared for adverse situations, whether a natural emergency or immigration detention. This Emergency Preparedness Form, developed by the ACLU, Brooklyn Defender Services and the Immigrant Defense Project, can be an important resource for you and your family in cases of emergency. Be sure to keep this form in a safe place and to only tell the people you trust about its location. Never tell any ICE agents about the location of this form.
The Florida Immigrant Coalition (FLIC) has prepared this one-pager that summarizes your rights. The one-pager is designed so that you can bring it with you and to minimize contact with ICE agents.
